About this product

Product Information

Free Fall is a brutal but engrossing memoir of the Second Chechen War, through the eyes of a young Russian soldier. Nicolai Lilin was conscripted and then trained as a sniper in an unorthodox Russian Special Forces regiment called the Saboteurs. This elite band of men, which operated outside the purview of traditional military code, fought their way through multiple assignments, including guerilla warfare in inhospitable mountainous terrain and intense hand-to-hand fighting in urban areas. Along the way, the Saboteurs faced mercenary fighters, anti-personnel mines and torture of the most extreme kind. Both an immediate sequel to the author's previous book, Siberian Education, and a remarkable stand-alone memoir, Free Fall offers a unique perspective on one of the most controversial wars in living memory. Lilin writes with honesty and extreme cynicism, and with a sharp eye for the banality of evil. It is an unflinching, unforgiving and unputdownable read.

Awesome product
This is the greatest book about war in Chechnya ever. This book will bring you in place of total chaos and cruelty, and he didn't afraid to say some words about how higher command officers betrayed new soldiers who perished day by day only because officers have got bribes from terrorists. This book blew my mind completely. I also can suggest to read Siberian Education by Nicolai Lilin before this one, then you understand where he comes from and how he grew up.
